Podcasts about Polaroid

Andy Warhol was the first artist to achieve rock star status. He was a Beatle with a silkscreen printer. His work and play space, the Factory, attracted people of all ages; rich and poor, straight and gay, sane and…not so sane. It was in the Factory that he was shot by a would-be assassin. He was rushed to a hospital and pronounced clinically dead. But Andy Warhol's second life began the moment he was resurrected on an operating table. As soon as his heart began to beat again, he became a true cultural icon – bigger than his paintings or his Polaroids or his experimental films, bigger than life itself. Andy Warhol became the future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today is the last day of Pride Month! To celebrate an excellent month of Pride programming on the Artalogue, host Madison Beale chats with photographer Wynne Neilly.  Award-winning, Toronto based photographer Wynne Neilly talks about portrait photography as an act of care, and how his queer and trans identity shapes both what he photographs and how he builds trust with the people in front of the camera. Neilly traces his path from a high school darkroom to art school mentorship and a practice rooted in relational intimacy. We get into why self-portraiture can be more challenging than traditional portraiture, especially while navigating aging, and the uniquely confronting experience of turning your own gaze back on yourself. He also breaks down what it means to treat the camera as a real tool, not just a content machine, and how the shift from film culture to smartphones changed the craft, the job market, and the pressure to define “success.” We spend some time discussing Neilly's early project “Female to Male,” Neilly's long-running Polaroid and installation self-documentation project that captured early transition week by week, which then erupted online after it was picked up by a news outlet and pushed him into a public spotlight. He reflects on the double-edged sword of visibility, the way trans work can be flattened into spectacle and sidelined, and what it takes to reclaim your own narrative over a decade later. Then we go behind the scenes of the Elliot Page Time magazine cover: the surprising email, the pandemic-era intimacy of a tiny set, the stress of shooting film under pressure, and the rare gift of creative freedom in an editorial context. We also discuss what it means to work in Canada today, and how some artists can find it rather stifling. If you care about LGBTQ+ art, trans representation, photography, and making images with real meaning, this conversation will stay with you. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review saying what part of Neilly's story resonated most with you. HAPPY PRIDE!

By 1988, the LAPD had the ballistics. They had the pattern. Same .25 caliber weapon. Same ten-block radius in South LA. Same profile of women being killed. They knew a serial killer was responsible. They told nobody.Not the public. Not the families. Not Enietra Washington — the only woman who survived an encounter with Lonnie Franklin Jr. and could have identified him. For twenty-five years, multiple LAPD chiefs kept the Grim Sleeper a secret while Franklin continued killing. The families didn't learn their daughters were connected until journalists at LA Weekly broke the story in 2007.Franklin was eventually caught through familial DNA in 2010. At his home: over a thousand photographs of women. Among them, the Polaroid he took of Enietra, bleeding and unconscious, twenty-two years earlier. The finale of Surviving Serial Killers on History's Hidden Killers — the story of a system that failed because the women being killed were invisible to the people paid to protect them.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

You Didn't Get SpaceX? Don't Worry, There Are Other Mega IPOs Coming You may feel like everyone got into SpaceX except you, and now you're wondering: Should I buy shares today? Is there something better coming next? The reality is that several other massive IPOs could be coming sooner than many investors realize. At the top of the list are OpenAI, with an estimated valuation of $852 billion, Anthropic, with an estimated valuation of $965 billion, Stripe, with an estimated valuation of $159 billion, and Databricks, with an estimated valuation of $134 billion. Before you get too excited about these potential offerings, or beat yourself up for missing SpaceX, consider what the historical data tells us. Research examining 1,724 U.S. IPOs between 2011 and 2024 found that the average IPO gained approximately 23% on its first day of trading. However, over the following three years, those same IPOs underperformed the broader market by an average of 25 percentage points. The study also found that since 1980, companies coming public with at least $100 million in annual sales and a price-to-sales ratio above 40 experienced an average decline of 45% from their first-day closing price. For current SpaceX shareholders, there could still be a near-term catalyst. Under Nasdaq's fast-entry rules, newly public companies can become eligible for inclusion in the Nasdaq-100 after just 15 trading days. However, both the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones indexes currently maintain a 12-month waiting period before new companies become eligible for inclusion. If your appetite for risk remains high, you'll likely have opportunities to speculate on OpenAI, Anthropic, Databricks, and other AI-related companies when they eventually go public. But an interesting question remains: When these AI giants hit the public markets, will investors who bought SpaceX at the IPO decide to sell some of their shares and rotate into the next hot AI opportunity? There are plenty of unanswered questions, which is exactly why we prefer not to invest based on hype, headlines, or fear of missing out. Instead, we focus on financial fundamentals, valuation, cash flow, and long-term business quality. Exciting stories can drive prices higher for a while, but over time, fundamentals tend to matter most.   What Can the Nifty Fifty and Tech Bubble Teach Us About Today's Market? Every market cycle has a story. In the early 1970s it was the "Nifty Fifty." In the late 1990s it was the internet and technology boom. Today it is artificial intelligence. The late 1990s we saw the technology boom where the internet was a revolutionary innovation that truly changed the world. Investors were correct about the technology but wrong about what they should pay for it. Companies with little revenue and no profits traded at astronomical valuations. The Nasdaq saw a five-fold increase between 1995 and early 2000. When the bubble burst, the fallout was severe. The Nasdaq ultimately lost almost 80% of its value. Hundreds of companies disappeared. Even industry leaders such as Cisco, Intel, and Microsoft experienced stock declines of 50% to 90%. Many investors assumed technology would continue growing forever and overlooked the simple fact that stock prices had already discounted years of future success. After peaking in March 2000, it took over 15 years for the Nasdaq to reclaim its previous high in April 2015. Often times I hear people say this time is different because unlike many internet companies in 2000, today's AI leaders are highly profitable businesses generating enormous cash flow. So, let's take a look at the Nifty Fifty as another, maybe more similar example. The Nifty Fifty era was built around the belief that a small group of dominant companies were so good that valuation no longer mattered. Investors piled into stocks such as Coca-Cola, IBM, Xerox, Polaroid, McDonald's, Sears and others. These companies were viewed as "one-decision stocks “buy them and never sell them. Investors would make excuses for the valuations because the businesses were strong. Through 1972, these firms averaged 22% annual earnings growth over the previous five-year period and had great profitability with an average return on equity over 22%. The problem was as enthusiasm grew, valuations expanded dramatically, with many trading at 40 to 60 times earnings despite an economy growing much slower. Then reality arrived. The 1973-74 bear market combined with inflation, rising interest rates, and an economic recession caused many of these stocks to fall 50% to 80%. The S&P 500 fell over 14% in 1973 and more than 26% in 1974. Most of the companies survived and remained successful businesses, but investors who paid excessive prices often waited a decade or longer to earn satisfactory returns. Today's AI boom has similarities to both periods. Like the Nifty Fifty, investors are concentrating heavily in a small number of dominant companies. Like the tech bubble, there is widespread excitement surrounding a transformational technology that is likely to reshape entire industries. However, history reminds us that even great companies can become poor investments when expectations become too optimistic. During every major market cycle, investors eventually discover the difference between a great business and a great stock. The key lesson from both the Nifty Fifty and the dot-com era is that transformative technologies often live up to their promise. What investors frequently get wrong is the price they are willing to pay for that future growth. AI may ultimately be every bit as revolutionary as investors believe. The bigger question is whether today's stock prices already reflect much of that future success. As we've learned from previous cycles, when expectations become too high, excellent results may not be enough to satisfy the market.   Private Credit Funds Are Facing High Redemption Requests Again This Quarter For the first quarter of 2026, redemption requests in several private credit funds exceeded the industry-standard 5% quarterly redemption cap. Second-quarter requests appear to be even higher. BlackRock's flagship private credit fund received redemption requests totaling 13.3% of fund assets, up from 9.3% in the first quarter. BlackRock has indicated it will continue to honor only up to 5% of redemption requests per quarter. Blackstone is facing a similar situation. Investors requested redemptions equal to roughly 10% of fund assets, and the firm also appears committed to maintaining its 5% quarterly redemption limit. Cliffwater may be facing the greatest pressure. Its $31 billion private credit fund received redemption requests totaling 17% of fund assets, far above the amount investors can currently withdraw and higher than the roughly 14% that was requested in Q1. Private credit funds have been dealing with a number of challenges, including rising loan losses, fraud concerns, and significant exposure to software companies. Many software businesses are facing pressure as investors question how artificial intelligence could impact their future growth and profitability. During BlackRock's last earnings call, CEO Larry Fink stated that institutional investors such as pension funds and insurance companies continue to allocate capital to private credit strategies. I don't want to call the man a liar, but it does seem strange that with all the problems that private credit is having I would think institutional funds would also be pulling back from investing. One would expect at least some institutional investors to become more cautious as risks increase. What concerns me most is the continued use of redemption gates. The longer funds limit withdrawals to 5% per quarter, the more investors may worry about liquidity. That concern can become self-reinforcing, leading more investors to submit redemption requests. If that happens, redemption demand could continue to rise in future quarters, creating additional pressure on the industry.   Investors Turn a Blind Eye to Fundamentals For many years, successful investing was built on analyzing company fundamentals. Today, however, there is a growing trend toward speculation and gambling. Many investors simply do not seem to care about valuation or earnings and instead believe stocks will continue to go "to the moon." Tesla is a good example. Three years ago, Wall Street analysts projected that Tesla would generate $163 billion in revenue by 2025. The actual figure came in far lower at $94.8 billion, more than 40% below expectations. Historically, missing growth expectations by such a wide margin would have been a major disappointment for investors. Yet Tesla shares have risen roughly 59% over the last three years despite falling well short of those revenue projections. There are other signs of speculation throughout the market. Thirteen years ago, there were only 39 private companies valued at more than $1 billion. Today, there are over 800. This trend highlights two important developments. First, private companies are staying private much longer, allowing early investors to capture a greater share of the value creation before public investors have an opportunity to participate. Second, investors are assigning much higher valuations to these businesses, many of which have little or no earnings and, in some cases, no positive cash flow at all. Markets can remain driven by optimism for long periods of time, but eventually fundamentals matter. The challenge for investors is determining when sentiment and speculation have pushed prices too far ahead of reality.   Headlines Say Crisis, Economic Data Says Otherwise The economy continues to show surprising resilience despite concerns surrounding higher energy prices and the conflict involving Iran. Many investors expected consumers to pull back as gasoline prices surged and headlines focused on geopolitical risks. Instead, economic data suggests the U.S. consumer remains in good shape. Retail sales in May rose 6.9% from the prior year, exceeding expectations and demonstrating that consumers are still willing to spend despite higher fuel costs. Even excluding gasoline stations, retail sales increased 5.4%, showing that spending strength was broad-based rather than simply a reflection of higher energy prices. Online sales, clothing purchases, restaurant spending, and other discretionary categories all contributed to the gains. Housing is also showing signs of stabilization. Pending home sales, which measure signed contracts on existing homes, rose 3.8% in May to the highest level in six months. The increase was well above economist expectations and marked a 4.8% improvement from a year ago. What makes these numbers particularly impressive is that they occurred while mortgage rates remained above 6% and energy prices were elevated because of Middle East tensions. Buyers and consumers appear to be adapting to a higher-rate environment rather than waiting indefinitely for lower borrowing costs. This does not mean there are no risks. Higher energy prices act like a tax on consumers, and housing affordability remains a challenge. However, the latest retail sales and housing data suggest the economy is far from rolling over. For investors, this is another reminder that economic fundamentals often matter more than headlines. While markets may focus on wars, oil prices, and geopolitical uncertainty, consumers are still spending, homes are still being purchased, and the economy continues to move forward.   The Most Important Part of the Fed Meeting Wasn't the Rate Decision The Federal Reserve's June meeting marked one of the biggest shifts in Fed communication and leadership in decades. As expected, the Fed left interest rates unchanged at 3.50%-3.75%, but the details beneath the surface were far more important. For the first time since 1951, a former Fed chair will remain on the Board after stepping down as chairman. Jerome Powell's decision to stay on as a governor creates an unusual dynamic as new Chairman Kevin Warsh begins reshaping the institution. Historically, outgoing Fed chairs have typically left the Board when their chairmanship ended. Warsh wasted little time signaling change. The Fed announced five new task forces that will review key aspects of monetary policy and Federal Reserve operations, including inflation frameworks, the Fed's balance sheet, its reliance on data sources, and productivity and jobs and the impact of artificial intelligence and other transformative technologies. The reviews are expected to produce recommendations later this year and could shape how the Fed operates for years to come. Perhaps the most noticeable change was the Fed statement itself. The policy statement was significantly shortened and went from above 300 words recorded in recent meetings to around 130 wors. It also removed much of the forward-looking language that investors had grown accustomed to under previous leadership. Language that suggested a bias toward future rate cuts was eliminated, reflecting a more data-dependent and less guidance-driven approach. The updated projections were also more hawkish than many expected. Nine of the 18 policymakers who submitted forecasts now expect at least one rate hike before year-end, while the other nine see rates remaining unchanged or moving lower. The result is a Fed that appears deeply divided on the path forward as inflation remains above target. Another major headline came from Warsh himself. Only 18 of the Fed's 19 policymakers submitted a forecast in the quarterly dot plot, with Warsh confirming that he did not provide one. As a long-time critic of forward guidance, Warsh appears to be signaling that the Fed may gradually move away from one of Wall Street's most closely watched communication tools. Half of the committee is worried inflation remains too high and believes rates may need to move higher. The other half sees little need for additional tightening. This sets the stage for Warsh's hope for a “family fight” as he believes more disagreement will lead to a better discussion so the Fed can finally deliver on price stability. While the rate decision itself was unanimous, the projections revealed a growing divide beneath the surface. The takeaway is clear: while rates didn't move, the Federal Reserve did. A shorter statement, less forward guidance, a chairman who won't publish his own rate forecast, five new policy task forces, and a committee split down the middle on the direction of rates all point to a Federal Reserve that looks very different than it did just a few months ago. The era of predictable Fed communication may be ending, and markets will have to adjust.   Financial Planning: Give More, Pay Less with Appreciated Stock One of the most tax-efficient ways to support a favorite charity or church is by donating appreciated stock instead of cash. When stock that has been held for more than one year is gifted directly to a qualified charity, the charity receives the full market value of the shares and can sell them without paying tax because it is a tax-exempt organization. The donor generally receives the same charitable income tax deduction they would have received had they donated cash, while also avoiding the realization of any capital gain. For example, if someone is considering donating either $50,000 of cash or $50,000 of appreciated stock, the charity receives the same economic benefit in either case, $50,000 that can be used to further its mission. Likewise, the donor generally receives the same $50,000 itemized charitable deduction. The difference is that if the stock was originally purchased for $20,000, donating the shares allows the donor to avoid recognizing the $30,000 capital gain. If the donor still wants to own the investment, they can use the cash that otherwise would have been donated to repurchase the shares, effectively increasing their cost basis from $20,000 to $50,000 and reducing future taxable gains.   Companies Discussed: Accenture plc (ACN)

The top ten grossing movies of 2025 include four sequels, two reboots, and two live-action remakes. The only film with a genuinely original premise is Sinners. Brian From turns that observation into a deeper question: why is an entire generation — raised online, drowning in new content — desperately reaching backward toward Polaroid cameras, record players, VHS tapes, and music from eras they never lived? Kyle Burks at the Gospel Coalition says Gen Z is drunk on nostalgia, and Brian argues it's not just Gen Z. That longing for something simpler, something that lasts, something you can hold onto — it's not ultimately a longing for the past. It's a longing for the eternal. Then: celebrating as a spiritual discipline — why moving on too quickly to the next thing robs us of joy, and what Brian learned hosting his son's graduation party. The Knicks win their first championship in 53 years. A pastor's thread of ordinary life-change stories from his congregation that reads like a modern Acts 8. GLP-1 drugs and Christians — less a right-or-wrong question and more an identity question. And a top-ten list of 2000s worship songs that will immediately transport you back to every lock-in you ever attended.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Just when you thought only Art brought the celebrity obits every week, this episode focuses on the media's recent loss of Captain Outrageous, the Mouth of the South…the inimitable Ted Turner. And lest any mourner be left out: the sailing world, Major League Baseball, and bison-lovers everywhere are also spilling tears into their dry vodka martinis at 5 minutes after every hour.  Thanks to Turner's WTCG, which later became WTBS, The Guys in their young (ish) teenage years had the opportunity to watch almost every Braves game and cheer for the Goldar (the Space Giant) in his  ongoing battle against Rodak. (Not to be confused with Polaroid's ongoing battle with Kodak.)  Turner was controversial, but a legend in the media world, where nobody thought CNN would last.  Ted may be gone, but he's not Gone with the Wind.  Geeks of the week get a new spin this week: Jay goes first!  A flopped Disney property gets a reboot, and Jay gets an explanation of why an entire section of Disney World was closed when he was there this year.  Art is looking forward to the introduction of some guest singers on the new Rolling Stones album.  And Robbie is sitting on the edge of his tomorrow again.  Listen to this episode, watch a Turner Classic Movie, and have a nice day.

Vivienne Aerts is a NYC-based Dutch Singer, Educator, and Psychologist, for many years on the faculty of the Berklee College of Music. I've been following her inspiring creative practice for a couple of years and I'm excited to tell you that for this episode you'll be hearing clips from her beautiful upcoming album Current, produced on a tiny 1951 Dutch sailboat, blending jazz, electronics, and vocal loops with water-inspired soundscapes. Her husband, the renowned pastry chef Ted Steinebach also made a documentary film about the journey, which features several other wonderful musicians who hopped on the boat to record.I found it uplifting to get to know Vivienne's interdisciplinary approach, rooted in mindfulness and how she got started as a student creating interesting opportunities for artists. You'll also be hearing clips from a couple of her previous projects including the award-winning Typuhthâng featuring 100 female musicians which supports Congolese female cacao farmers through a partnership with Original Beans.In this age of AI, I'm inspired by Vivienne's trust and hopefulness in the need for us to engage all of our senses and the power of mobilizing micro-communities to support meaningful creative work.You can also watch this video on my YouTube; I've also linked the transcript, Vivienne's website, other suggested episodes, podcast newsletter sign-up, podcast merch, and how you can buy me a coffee to support this independent podcast!

Why does the rough mix always feel like the real song - and how the hell do you get that magic back without ruining it?In this episode, Pat Sansone and I go deep into the lifelong puzzle of mixing: why the first tracking rough has all the energy, how chasing it can make you crazy, and why mixing is really more like photography than engineering. Pat walks through how his visual art - Polaroids, slide film, CMYK vs RGB, Lambda printing - has taught him to trust instinct, appreciate imperfections, and approach mixes like developing a print rather than fixing a file. We talk about turning the screen off while playing a mix, the weird phenomenon of hearing a song differently once another person walks into the room, and why limitations make better records.We also dive into Pat's history with The Autumn Defense, Wilco, and the Big Star universe. Pat shares memories of making The Green Hour and Circles at my house - dragging the JH-16 up the stairs, tracking G-Whiz in the basement, and writing “The Answer” face-to-face with John Stirratt twenty feet from where we sat for this interview. He explains how the new Autumn Defense record Here and Nowhere came together after an eleven-year break, why Creative Workshop became the perfect studio for it, how Teddy Morgan helped capture tones, and why he still records acoustic and vocal together whenever possible. We get into gear, mic choices (KM84s, SM58s, Sony lavs), the struggle of acoustic/vocal bleed, and the random chaos of synths, plugins, and sessions that don't open right years later.Pat also talks about his photography book Noticing, his Infinity Mirrors ambient synth album, and how wandering with a camera unlocked the same creative freedom he felt as a teenager with a Korg Poly-6. He explains how Nashville re-energized his creative life - from running into Robyn Hitchcock in the cereal aisle at Turnip Truck to singing ooohs at Brendan Benson's studio the next day. We share memories of New Orleans, Chicago, analog tape, Pro Tools Mix+, transferring Birdy on the Moon tracks, losing Josh Shapera, and the role Creative Workshop played in Pat's “Nashville phase two.”By the end, we're talking Big Star, Eggleston photographs, orchestral arrangements, radio DJing, and why slide film and tube mics scratch the same itch. It's a wide-open conversation about creativity, sound, light, limitations, mistakes, rough mixes, and how to stay inspired for a lifetime.Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.comTHANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!http://UltimateMixingMasterclass.comhttps://usa.sae.edu/ https://www.izotope.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.native-instruments.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.spectra1964.comhttps://gracedesign.com/https://pickrmusic.com https://RecordingStudioRockstars.com/Academyhttps://www.thetoyboxstudio.com/Listen to the podcast theme song “Skadoosh!” https://solo.to/lijshawmusicListen to this guest's discography on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0ZJrYkHqfDba4iL2InbLk9?si=HndgYrlWRzGusV2yOwzVagIf you love the podcast, then please leave a review: https://RSRockstars.com/ReviewCLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES AT: https://RSRockstars.com/559

In this episode of The Truth In This Art, the guest is Amir Browder and Maxwell Young!About the guests: Amir Browder is the curator, creative director, and founder of Homme Gallery in DC. Maxwell Young is the founder of the Art Shopping Network, a writer, and works on projects that socialize art buying and support living artists, nonprofit institutions, and galleries.We talk about Acquired Taste and what it does: a catalog and platform that socializes art buying through Polaroids from the host's personal archive, prints, editorial interviews and essays, and curated first‑access opportunities that prioritize context and history over speculation. Acquired Taste also runs a virtual component — online catalog materials, digital/3D renderings, and remote programming that operate alongside in‑person activations. Browder and Young explain how conversational, low‑barrier events help people connect with artists as humans, not just names on a wall.They compare running physical programming with online initiatives. Young stresses repurposing existing tools and trying imperfect, practical approaches instead of waiting for something polished; Browder centers collaboration and working together toward shared goals. The roster features alumni from The Truth In This Art, including Xenia Gray, Maurice James, and Esteban Whiteside. They discuss how Acquired Taste and the Art Shopping Network aim to support living artists, artist‑run spaces, and nonprofit institutions, and how local markets and gatherings can strengthen the broader art ecosystem.We also talk about why in‑person gatherings matter and how to make room for artists whose work challenges and expands community conversation.Acquired Taste is a two‑day live auction and exhibition presented by @artshoppingnetwork, arriving at @HOMMEDC on May 29–30.

Why do low P/E stocks perform better in overpriced markets? We are currently in a momentum-driven market, and many people are experiencing FOMO, which is the fear of missing out. Much of this is being fueled by AI and technology stocks, where investors are willing to pay almost any price because they believe these industries will continue growing indefinitely and they don't want to miss the opportunity. The problem is that high P/E stocks and companies with no P/E since there are no earnings at all already have massive future success priced into them. When the market eventually declines, as it always does at some point, it is often because these high-flying companies miss lofty expectations. That can trigger major selloffs and sharp declines in stock prices. Low P/E stocks, on the other hand, typically have more modest growth expectations. Because expectations are lower, market downturns often have less impact on these companies. Many low P/E companies are also more mature businesses with stable cash flows, which tend to hold up better during slower economic periods. Examples include companies in consumer staples and financials. In addition, many low P/E stocks pay dividends, which can help stabilize returns and reduce volatility during uncertain markets. However, investors still need to be careful to avoid “value traps” which are companies with low P/E ratios that deserve to trade at low valuations. This is why understanding the “E” in the P/E ratio or the earnings is so important. You want to avoid investing in companies with declining businesses and shrinking earnings potential. Think about companies like Polaroid or Blockbuster, which failed to adapt as their industries changed. It's also important to remember that market cycles play out over years, not weeks or months. Just because a strategy has worked well for a couple of years doesn't mean it will continue indefinitely. For example, it took roughly five years for the tech boom to fully unravel during the dot-com bubble.   Is Your Beer Budget Feeling the Gas Pump? If your beer fridge has been looking a little emptier lately, you're not alone and the culprit might not be your willpower. New Nielsen scanner data shows that U.S. beer, hard seltzer, and cider volumes dropped 6.3% year over year through the week ending May 2, both on a two- and four-week trailing basis. This was nearly double the 3% declines seen between November and mid-April. What's driving it? Analysts at Bernstein are pointing straight at the gas pump. There's a clear negative correlation between gas prices in a given state and beer volume growth, and it's becoming more visible in the data, particularly in markets with the most expensive fuel. Average U.S. gasoline prices have risen roughly 52% since the start of the Iran war, according to AAA. That's a serious hit to household budgets and it shows. California, with fuel averaging around $6.16 per gallon, saw a 16% decline in beer volumes. Arizona and Texas weren't far behind, posting declines of 10% and nearly 7%, respectively. Convenience stores seem to be seeing the brunt of the decline as they are highly sensitive to gas station traffic and impulse purchases tied to commuting and travel. Not every brand is suffering equally. Michelob Ultra is holding relatively flat, while Bud Light and Budweiser are posting double-digit volume declines. Boston Beer remains the weakest performer among major brewers.   Information is starting to trickle in about the SpaceX IPO The SpaceX IPO is expected to be the largest initial public offering on record, with the potential to raise $80 billion or more through the stock sale. Based on the information currently available, SpaceX is expected to begin its roadshow around June 4th, which could place the public offering date near June 12th. The company is expected to trade under the ticker symbol SPCX on the Nasdaq, as well as Nasdaq Texas, which would represent a significant blow to the New York Stock Exchange. If you plan to read the entire prospectus, be prepared to invest some time. The filing totals 277 pages, not including notes and exhibits. By comparison, a typical IPO prospectus is usually fewer than 200 pages. Financial data shows that in 2025, SpaceX generated revenue of $18.7 billion, an increase of 33% over the previous year. However, earnings declined sharply, with the company reporting a net loss of $4.9 billion compared with a profit of $791 million in 2024. Unsurprisingly, Elon Musk will serve as CEO. Goldman Sachs is expected to lead the offering alongside Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Citigroup, and JPMorgan Chase. Given the size of the deal, it will certainly be interesting to see how all five firms work together. As more important information becomes available, we will continue to keep you updated.   Financial Planning: The Breakeven on Social Security Many people look at their Social Security statement and perform a breakeven analysis to determine how long they would have to live for waiting to claim benefits to pay off. These simple calculations often suggest that claiming at 62 is best if life expectancy is less than around 78, claiming at full retirement age around 67 makes sense if life expectancy is between 78 and 82, and waiting until 70 is best if someone expects to live beyond 82. The problem is that this type of analysis is often too simplistic and can be misleading. Most breakeven calculations only compare the total dollars received at different claiming ages and ignore several important factors. First, Social Security benefits continue to receive annual Cost-of-Living Adjustments (COLAs), whether benefits are started early or delayed. Second, no one truly knows how long they will live, so any breakeven age is really just an estimate. Most importantly, many analyses ignore the time value of money. If someone starts benefits earlier, they may be able to reduce withdrawals from other retirement assets, allowing those investments more time to grow and potentially generate additional future income. When you factor in both Social Security COLAs and the potential return that could be earned on invested assets, the breakeven age often moves much later than people expect. In many cases, it can take well into someone's 90s or beyond before delaying benefits actually produces a greater overall financial benefit. That does not mean taking benefits early is always the best choice, but it does show that Social Security decisions should be based on an overall retirement income strategy rather than a simple breakeven calculation alone.   Companies Discussed: Versant Media Group, Inc.

May 22, 2026Today's Reading: Introit for Pentecost - Psalm 68:1, 4a, c, 11a, 33b, 35a; antiphon: Liturgical Text; Psalm 68:3Daily Lectionary: Numbers 20:1-21; Luke 20:19-44“God shall arise, his enemies shall be scattered; and those who hate him shall flee before him!” (Psalm 68:1)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Have you ever done one of those eating challenges? “Finish this 144oz steak in 5 minutes and your whole bill is free!” If you can eat this 44lb burrito in 15 minutes, we'll put a small Polaroid of you on the wall with your name in Sharpie underneath!” At first, it's delicious. After a few bites, the deliciousness wears off. Suddenly, what might have once been your favorite food now evokes revulsion at every bite.Who can endure 50 days of Alleluias? We gave up our Alleluias, the joyful “Praise the Lord” for 40 days of Lent (plus three extra weeks if your congregation observed Pre-Lent!). And it was nice when it came back at Easter. But sometimes the joy feels a little forced. What once felt like pure joy in the octave of Easter now sometimes feels forced.But now we're on the cusp of a transition. We've had 48 days of Alleluias, and we're just 2 days before the Church Year returns to normal, but still the Psalm with its Easter Alleluias beckons us, “The righteous shall be glad. They shall exult before God; they shall be jubilant with joy! Alleluia.”That's not an imperative, not a command. It doesn't compel our rejoicing or force us to put on an Alleluia face. Sometimes in this Christian life, our alleluias feel more scripted than spontaneous. And that's ok.Even the Psalmist acknowledges that not everything goes according to the Divine ideal. “Shall” implies a “not yet”. “Shall be glad.” “Shall exult before God.” “Shall be jubilant with joy.” And then in the middle of the psalm, “God shall arise.” “His enemies shall be scattered.” “And those who hate him shall flee before him!” But those aren't fully realized yet. Sometimes we have to wait for the fulfillment of the “shall.” But in the Church, shall is certain. The future is guaranteed. God made a promise to you in Baptism that he cannot and will not break. You have been joined to Christ's death and resurrection. All your enemies–sin, death, and Satan–have been scattered. Their future is also certain. They will flee before the Lord on the Day of His return. You, the righteous, shall be eternally glad. And on that day, no one will need to script the Alleluias.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Scatter the darkness, break the gloom; Sun, reveal an empty tomb Shining with joy for all our sorrows, Hope and peace for all tomorrows, Life uneclipsed by doubt and dread: Christ has risen from the dead! (LSB 481:1)Rev. Jeffrey Hemmer, pastor of Bethany Evangelical Lutheran Church in Fairview Heights, IL and Signal Hill Lutheran Church in Belleville, IL

News24 Journalist, Andrew Thompson, joins John Maytham to unpack why younger generations in particular are rediscovering the appeal of delayed gratification, physical photo prints and the nostalgic ritual of shooting on film rather than scrolling through thousands of forgotten images stored in the cloud.

Bigfoot Dragged Her Through the WindowJoin my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/supportIn 1996, Roger—an all‑around skeptic and professional scientist—reconnected with a former college roommate who belonged to a ghost‑hunting club and invited him on an overnight hunt at Beaver Creek State Park in Ohio. Roger joined the group in a remote, heavily wooded area known among enthusiasts for supposed hauntings. After setting up camp, they compared equipment and methods: an EMF meter, digital thermometer for “cold spots,” Polaroid and electronic cameras for “orbs,” an expensive infrared video camera, and an EVP recorder that might capture voices in white noise (which skeptics attribute to pareidolia). The group even encountered a Bigfoot hunter who exchanged business cards with them, prompting good‑natured jokes about how each group probably seemed ridiculous to the other. Once darkness fell, the ghost hunters visited several rumored hotspots—old canal locks and other locations tied to local legends—navigating in near total darkness, where Roger narrowly avoided stepping off an unseen drop at an abandoned lock. After more fruitless searching (including attempts to provoke the spirit of Pretty Boy Floyd), the night finally turned strange at a cemetery with dozens of graves dating back to the 1800s. Using the infrared camera, the group observed bright, rubber‑band‑shaped forms hovering above them, expanding and contracting, then diving into grave mounds or headstones and disappearing, while others seemed to emerge and drift along. Roger couldn't explain what he saw, and the group watched for about half an hour before returning to camp around 3 a.m.; years later, Roger remains mystified by that inexplicable display.

"The Chronology of Water story was an 11-page story written in tiny fragments. And the MFA program I was in, they told me, that's not a story. It's a poem or something. It's a list of fragments. I'm like, 'Fuck you!' My whole enterprise has been to trouble the edges," says Lidia Yuknavitch, bestselling author of several books, most recently a memoir titled Reading the Waves.Lidia Yuknavitch makes her thrilling return to the podcast, this a live recording of the show at Gratitude Brewing in Eugene in partnership with the revival of the Northwest Review. My understanding is that there's a significant literary prize, including creative nonfiction essays. You might want to try you filthy animals. The Northwest Review was the first place that ever published Lidia, a short, 11-page story called the Chronology of Water, so, maybe YOU could be the next Lidia Yuknavitch, though we know that's impossible so don't even try.She's the author of eight books of fiction, nonfiction, and the editor of an essay collection on menopause called The Big M. She's best known for her memoir, or anti-memoir called The Chronology of Water, the novels Thrust, Verge, and The Small Backs of Children. And her most recent nonlinear, fractured memoir is the brilliant Reading the Waves.She won the Oregon Book Award in 2016 and also stood on the TED stage and delivered a beautiful talk about misfits.

The box was still there. Everything was where I left it.

On this episode of That Don't Sound Right, Peter and Cecil dig into the growing trend of phone-free restaurants—where your device might end up locked in a drawer, swapped for a Polaroid, or simply banned at the door. The goal? Less scrolling, more actual conversation. The guys explore why some venues are pushing back against constant Instagramming and notifications, and whether it really makes for a better experience—or just creates new frustrations. Along the way, they branch out into other phone-free zones like schools, churches, concerts, and workplaces, asking where these rules make sense… and where they might go too far. With plenty of personal stories—from retreats and babysitters to backpacking trips—they weigh the safety trade-offs against the value of being fully present. And true to the show's roots, they tackle it all without Googling mid-conversation. Is unplugging the secret to better connection—or does that idea not quite hold up? Listen in, and if you catch yourself thinking, that don't sound right… you know what to do. #tdsrpodcast #ThatDontSoundRight #PhoneFree #DigitalDetox #Unplugged #SocialMediaCulture #ModernLife #Mindfulness #RestaurantTrends #StayPresent #TechAndSociety #ConversationMatters #OfflineLife #PodcastDiscussion Connect with us:

Here is something that should make you briefly furious: the reason so many adults stop trying new things — stop picking up instruments and languages and crafts, stop putting themselves in positions of gorgeous, humbling incompetence — is not laziness, and it is not age. It is a scientific consensus that was overturned decades ago and somehow never sent you notice.Pete brings some brain stuff. Tommy brings some hobbies. And together they make a case that two of the most underrated things an adult can do are: willingly be terrible at something new, and stop apologizing for what you do in your free time.Pete's side will change the way you talk to yourself about your own brain. Tommy's side will make you want to immediately go do something completely unnecessary and slightly obsessive. The Feeling Friends segment involves lemon juice, a Polaroid camera, and the birth of an entire field of psychology.Press play.

Len and Jim follow the money, the zoning maps, and at least one imaginary contractor from 79 A.D. to figure out where new Magic Kingdom hotels might go—and whether you'll one day be able to literally sleep inside Villains Land. Then Jim digs into one of Disneyland's strangest early attractions: a fully gold-plated “Bathroom of Tomorrow” that proves Walt Disney could, in fact, make plumbing both educational and slightly terrifying. Along the way: after-2pm tickets, summer crowd tea leaves, and why your next Disney vacation might come with a side of afternoon thunderstorms and existential ride downtime. NEWS • Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin soft-opens at Magic Kingdom with updated gameplay and improved interactivity • Walt Disney World introduces new after-2pm summer tickets with lower per-hour cost—but higher exposure to Florida's daily thunderstorm roulette • Summer 2026 discounts (tickets + hotels) hint at softer-than-expected demand and rising travel costs impacting attendance • Deposition reveals Disney explored building one or two hotels near Magic Kingdom—raising big questions about location, zoning, and long-term expansion • Universal quietly moves forward with demolition at Islands of Adventure's Lost Continent as speculation swirls (Zelda, anyone?) FEATURE • The real story behind Disneyland's Bathroom of Tomorrow (1956–1960), designed by industrial legend Henry Dreyfuss • Why everything in the exhibit was gold-plated—and why diamonds were, regrettably, ruled out • How Walt Disney's practical, farm-raised approach to plumbing influenced early park design (and yes, restroom priorities) • The clash between Dreyfuss's elegant bathroom design and Monsanto's… “efficient” House of the Future facilities • How Disney parks later became a real-world testing lab for product design—including a Polaroid camera shaped by guests fumbling with popcorn-greased fingers For this episode's full shownotes click here.

What if a ghost could text back… but only through Polaroids? This is the unforgettable case of the “Polaroid Ghost.” We follow two artists living in a quiet Los Angeles neighborhood who suddenly find themselves documenting a presence that doesn't just show up on camera, but answers questions, spells out its name, and hints at secrets hidden on the property. We get into the psychics, the skeptics, and the infamous Halloween parties where guests brought their own cameras and left shaken after capturing unexplainable images. With experts and even Polaroid unable to debunk it, and thousands of photos collected over decades, this case leaves us questioning what's really developing in the dark. Watch the 1993 Halloween party video here Listen to John Hucker's episode of Wendy's Coffeehouse Curious podcast here. Watch the video version here. Have ghost stories of your own?

Elon Musk's SpaceX is preparing to go public. Could it become one of the world's most valuable companies?One year on from “Liberation Day”, when sweeping tariffs reshaped global trade, we ask who's winning and who's paying the price.And from bankruptcy to comeback, Leanna Byrne speaks to the boss of Polaroid about why instant cameras are thriving again.(Photo: NASA's SpaceX Crew-9 mission lifts off in a Dragon spacecraft, on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, from the launch pad of Space Launch Complex-40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, USA, 28 September 2024.

We're packing our bags for a spooky girls' trip episode where the only itinerary is haunted vibes, chaotic energy, and paranormal encounters that seem to happen whenever the girls get together. In this episode we read listener stories about bachelorette parties, road trips, and weekend getaways that took a turn into the supernatural. Ghost photobombs, objects moving on their own, possible UFO sightings, and more. When you travel with your besties, sometimes a few spirits join the party too.  Stories include: On a girls' trip to New Orleans, a selfie at Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop features the infamous face in the fireplace—perhaps the face of the ghostly flasher from Sabrina's bachelorette party. A quiet sleepover style bachelorette party takes a wild turn when a balloon glides across the kitchen and pulls streamers down like a playful spirit is joining the celebration. Two best friends driving through the Appalachian mountains witness a UFO moving at an impossible speed. At an Airbnb wedding weekend, a Polaroid photo captures a tall figure in the hallway while guests experience missing phones, memory gaps, and heavy energy at the house. A birthday cocktail outing inside a historic Halifax house becomes unforgettable when a Snapchat video reveals a second face right beside the listener's. Watch the video version here.
